This past weekend, the rivalry between two bongo music heavyweights, Diamond Platnumz and Ali Kiba, attracted fans and spurred discussions among music lovers. The newest songs from both artists were released last week.
Tension increased when Diamond boasted on Instagram about achieving success without arranging interviews or planning promotional events for his single Enjoy with Juma Jux.
After three of his songs occupied the top three positions on the trending charts, Diamond made a subtly directed statement to his fellow musicians.
Just a reminder: Enjoy's audio is the one that is now trending at number one. Interviews and lavish parties are not necessary; it is happening right now. The song video is coming soon, according to Diamond.

He seemed to be speaking to Ali Kiba, who had recently worked with Marioo on the song Sumu, published on July 14. Ali Kiba and Marioo participated in several interviews to promote their most recent album.
Ali Kiba responded by assuring his supporters that Diamond's comments would not stop the festivities from going on.
According to our younger brother Kwevo, the festivities will continue later at Elements, and he declared, "Maparty mafululu kama asemavyo bwana mdogo Kwevo."
Diamond recently disclosed his intentions to stage a significant comeback in July 2023, which also happens to be his mother's birthday month.
The singer of the famous song "Baikoko" announced that fans might anticipate collaborations from him from next month and that he would maintain the top spot until January 2024.
Then, he declared that he would hand over the reins to his Wasafi signees, whom he views in the highest regard and respect.
Diamond has already spoken about his ongoing conflict with bongo singer Ali Kiba.
In a 2022 interview with Wasafi TV, Diamond stated that he had realized that their arguments were over unimportant things like fandom and popularity.
He then remarked, "I've thought about it a lot, and I've realized that the quarrel between Kiba and me is rooted in immaturity and adolescent rivalry over fans.
Diamond explained in the interview that their argument began when Kiba refused to work with him on the song Lala Salama.
Diamond remarked that he admires Kiba for upholding his standing in the business.
In contrast to competing for admirers within the nation, Ali Kiba said, "There is a huge market out there, and I am cool with everyone."
